About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing is when the business owner uses the assets they have to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset may be an individual property, such as the family home or a company asset such as a truck or piece or equipment.
The majority of lenders, even the banks with the biggest size, prefer to guarantee loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence it is the process of securing additional financing making use of the value of what you already have.
What do I require security to secure an company loan?
For loans up to $150,000 no asset security is required prior to the loan’s access but we do require an individual guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the loan terms (as detailed in your loan contract) the security of assets is not required. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally, you are able to get the option of a personal ensure and security is provided in the form of charges on assets.
